Simple Metal X and Y Axes Alignment Print

I was experiencing layer staggering for prints over 143mm X/Y, and I think I discovered the issue. The printrbot Simple homes at X0 and Y0, however it begins printing at approximately X7.5mm and Y7.5mm. To calculate this, I made a 149mm alignment square. It begins drawing the line on the left back side around 7.5mm when it should start it at .5mm. Then it grinds out when it gets to the right side, causing the next left side line to be staggered by 7.5mm. Same thing happens with Y axis.

Can some people on here download this alignment test and try it out on their Simple Metals? I suspect it's an issue with the firmware (I'm using V3), but that obviously won't be the case if I'm the only one with the issue. By the way, changing Repetier Printer Settings and the centering in Slic3r does absolutely nothing.

I'm too new a user to post links, so search Thingiverse for thing #358689 or "Printrbot Simple Metal Alignment Test."

Simple Metal X and Y Axes Alignment Print

Same issue here with the v2 firmware. The answer was found here : [oops, no URL allowed for me] "Bad firmware? M212 not working properly..." on the offcial printrbot's help.The probe offset defined with M212 is responsible, apparently it messes up with a general offset.

So if you have M212 X20 Y0 Z[your calibration], for some reason it will cause the issue you described.

By changing to M212 X0 Y0 Z[your calibration], it resolves that issue, I was able to print a 6"x6" object.

But I suspect that the auto leveling won't be as good, since the offset of the probe is not taken into account anymore ... we have to wait for a new firmware I suppose.

In my case, setting M212 at X0 Y0 Z... alows me to print 6"x6" objects, but I can clearly see that it affects the Z calibration : My Z gets to low on the left, almost clogging the nozzle, and to high on the right.So I have to chose between having a good calibration, or being able to print 6"x6" ...

I verified the M206, M210 and M211 values, and they are all correct.

The G29 has a strange behavior, I don't understand the logic behind it, I will open a new topic about that ...

However, on the day they tweeted it, that page still linked to the V3 firmware. Hence my confusion. I just don't think they realized it linked to the old firmware at the time of my tweet. Which explains why their reply didn't address the basic question, "Is this firmware from a month ago or is it new?"
